Christmas time is awesome. why?
because people are remembering the importance of Jesus Christ and his
infinite atonement, therefore they become happier. it makes me happy
because no one bashes, no one says mean things. everyone just remembers their saviour and in returned are blessed.. my inter most desires
would be for us to have every month like the month of Dec.
where everyone could be "forced" one could say, to remember Jesus. but i
feel like it was like that, then the specialness of remembering would
decrease dramatically. its makes me even more grateful for church
because that's exactly what it does.. this week was soo much better, the
book of mormon never fails, it's the best friend that i could have. With
todays wisdom, knowledge, guidance. i love it. it's got everything.
along with prayer.. i think i've increased my testimony a lot this week.
never in my life have i prayed so much. i feel like an idiot because
the scriptures say to always pray, without ceasing. so i thought I'd give
it a go.. and boy can tell you the difference. before i thought
i was praying A LOT but i couldn't say without ceasing. i think i might have
found the thing that i was missing but at the same time there
are bazillion things to have realized. lets be real, prayer is
pretty important, you all are probably thinking, elder, really, are you
seriously finding this out right now? i do
feel like i've just notched up my prayer testimony a couple steps.
love you guys lots.
ps. mom, i don't know if I've mentioned
this already but we started eating super healthy. i love it. so
thanks for making us eat all of those gross broccoli casseroles at an early age to get me accustomed, because now i love it.
